Just a question: why does that family drive trucks? I mean, they seem to be living in an affluent suburb, and the only cross-country driving they will likely encounter would probably involve speedbumbs at pedestrian crossings. So why is their driveway full of trucks and SUV's? Why not drive a proper car instead?

What difference does it make whether they live in an affluent suburb? What difference does it make whether you drive cross-country? What's wrong with owning trucks?

I drive an SUV, and although my commute is 40 miles one-way, it's hardly cross-country.

What exactly is a "proper" car, anyway?

What do they use those trucks for? Do they tow, haul cargo? Do they use the truck for its designed purpose?
 
This is ridiculous...
Maybe they are rich, but does that mean they should give him a Cadillac or something expensive for his very FIRST vehicle? I'd be fine with that truck, all it needs is a little paint job. By looking at it it looks like a '91 Chevy S10, or something similar.
 
Abstract is right. Growing up in a affluent area I would say you would get made fun driving that. There are many kids at my school with cars nicer than the teachers- BMW's, Volvos, Lexus', Saabs, even a couple highlander hybrids, etc. If my parents bought me that, I would rather not have a car than that. It would be easier to have my friends and parents give me rides places, or just take my parents car than dealing with other high schoolers commenting on what a junker it is.

I doubt this is real because his family appears to have some desire to have some sort of image. The Camero, the hummer, the giant pickup truck etc. . They would not want to be seen with their kid driving a $200 piece of crap with graffiti all over it. If this is actually real, I just think it's a joke on the kid.

Wether its real, fake, or a joke on the kid I think they are just white trash with some money.

FAIL. ;) A) It's a Challenger B) It's Camaro, not Camero. :D
 
Wow! lots of elitists in this thread. I would thank my parents so much for purchasing a vehicle for me. I don't give a **** what the rich kids think.
 
Um. Fake as well.

Notice a pattern?

Yes, I'm so sure that this kids parents are allowing him to have an internet persona that freaks out entirely and shoves remote controls up his ass while crying. The kid just has temper issues plain and simple.

Eh, hard to say if it's fake or a kid with some serious anger management problems. Me? I'm leaning toward "serious anger management problems." Nobody would want to be portrayed as a raving lunatic, even if it's just an internet persona. There are other ways to gain internet fame.

As for the truck...take it to Maaco and get a new paint job! Easy solution!

I think it's more important to address the fact that there are kids like this on the planet (and quite a lot of them) instead of whether the video is fake or not.

You honestly think that in the middle of a tantrum, this kid would grab a remote and pretend to put it up his ass? And that somehow, his brother would know exactly when to put the camera in his room to catch the tantrum? And that this angry kid tears his shirt off every time he gets mad?

The car video is as fake as the WOW cancellation video. If he really wanted to destroy the car he would have hit one of the windows.

Hmm a child acting bizarrely during a tantrum?! Alert the media! a new behavior has been discovered in humans!:rolleyes:

What is so hard about putting a camera in a position that covers the entire room. Its a rectangular room, put the camera in a corner, MAGIC!

I've seen freakouts in real life that have made these look mild at worst. You've never seen a kid throw a tantrum?
